Soilless Farming Boosts Saudi Nursery Yields

The article discusses Saudi Arabia's efforts to develop modern agriculture through the use of soilless farming techniques and artificial intelligence, aiming to address water scarcity and increase agricultural productivity. It highlights the benefits of these technologies, including reducing water consumption by up to 97%, by utilizing automation systems and sensors to continuously monitor and analyze growing conditions. It also explains that the return on investment for greenhouses can reach up to 110%, and that establishing modern farms costs between 5,000 and 9,000 Riyals per square meter, while lowering production costs to around 100 Riyals per ton compared to traditional farming. The article demonstrates that soilless cultivation can boost productivity by up to 80 times, facilitate the availability of produce in multiple seasons and small spaces, and thus support national food security by reducing reliance on imports. It emphasizes the importance of applying these techniques in neighborhoods and urban areas to achieve sustainable local production, reduce costs, and generate high returns for farmers. The article also confirms that Saudi Arabia is among the leading countries adopting this agricultural revolution.
